Directions: from intersection 25 and 78 at Fulton, go south on 25 for approx. 4 miles. Turn left on Justice road and go one and one quarter miles, then turn right on Russell road. Go approx. one one one half miles and cemetery is on left. Russell road is now a private road and the cemetery is located on the Russell property.
There are at least 57 graves that are marked with sand stones or outlined with brick and some that you can see the outline of the grave but have no markers. These brick are said to have been made by slaves. It is also stated that in the northeast corner, slaves are buried in unmarked graves. There was once a school and a church next to the cemetery.
